- I've never been to a cat show, but my mom breeds Siamese cats.
- Her younger (breeding) cats have the more "Asian" look, and
- I think they look beautiful. However, as I haven't been to
- a show I don't know if this is common -- I can see that it
- could be taken to an extreme. Hers look elegant but not
- weird, but I don't like the smushed face Persian look so
- I assume that Siamese could be warped in a similar way.
-
- Why do some people insist on enhancing traits that make
- animals unhealthy?
